As of 08:47 GMT, the Dollar Index stood at 97.831, up 0.147 points or 0.15%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This marked the third consecutive session of gains, following a period of weakness earlier in the month. The catalyst came from the <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/pFu5zBdfPh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Bureau of Labor Statistics<\/a>, which reported a 0.1% decline in the PPI for final demand in August\u2014down from the 0.7% rise in July, which itself was revised lower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">A stalling labor market points to slower growth ahead in the US.

After hitting a yearly low near <strong>95.97<\/strong> in July, the index has stabilised but continues to struggle to reclaim the <strong>100 level<\/strong>, suggesting persistent selling pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2026\/03\/image-14-1024x453.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-30581\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">#image_title<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The moving averages (5,10,30) are flat, signalling indecision, while the <strong>MACD<\/strong> hovers near the zero line, reflecting weak momentum.
